Is there a reason you are going to be using two stock BOVs? Also is there a reason you picked the stock BOV over the many aftermarket options?

Because the stock BPV is the best, even if it doesn't make a "super cool BOV sound".

The factory MR2 bypass valve uses boost to hold it shut, just like an HKS Super Sequential BOV. They never leak.

It's too bad that so many casual MR2 enthusiasts get rid of the factory valve for a super cool sounding valve.

Honestly, when vented to atmosphere, they sound pretty good for a non whistle-type valve.
